MUST WATCH

Story highlights

Trump lost the popular vote by several million ballots to Hillary Clinton.

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump again overstated the size of his Electoral College win on Thursday, only to quickly fold and blame the claim on bad information.

Trump claimed at a news conference that he had the largest Electoral College win since Ronald Reagan. When told later in the news conference by NBC's Peter Alexander that information was false, Trump did not defend the argument, which he has made repeatedly in recent days, but said he was "talking about Republicans."
